Istanbul

Istanbul (Constantinople) is the only city in the world that bridges two continents. As one tours Sultanahmet and the most beautiful palaces, mosques and churches in the world, the stunning blend of East and West becomes apparent.
This old part of Istanbul, which is the old Byzantium, is surrounded by the original city walls, by the Golden Horn waterway to the north and on the south by the Marmara Sea.
The new Istanbul, north of the Golden Horn, was built at the end 19th century and is now an important business center of Istanbul.
The third section of the city is the Asian side, separated from the European side by the Bosphorus, which flows from the Black Sea to the Marmara Sea. The points of interest in the new Istanbul are many wonderful streets for walking, with great shops as well as art galleries and wonderful local cuisine
